Sorry about the quality - Shot from my Treo 680 cameraphone.
Although I did not send this instrument for culture, it would have been interesting to see what little critters resided on this computer peripheral...
And yes, I went right ahead and used the terminal, but washed my hands afterward.

Addendum: Seems there's an answer to everything... (Hat Tip: the WSJ).

I'd have done the same thing. Used it and then washed my hands. However, I would have then needed to buy a new mouse. My OCD can be a financial burden sometimes.
I really wonder with all this electronic medical record stuff, just how many germs we are leaving on our keyboards. They say wash before and after each patient, I wonder if it should be wash before and after each computer entry...
There's an idea for a money-making product - an antibacterial keyboard spray that won't damage the computer but will get all those germs.
